I've even tried tagging using Picard instead, then trying to import the files into beets like this Despite the --noautotag and --nowrite, it still replaces the instrumentals with the non instrumentals and vice versa... I'm kinda lost on that one |

This could be caused by the fact some songs that are the same between the two CDs? Some songs don't have lyrics in the regular CD and so they have exact same ID in the 2nd CD for instrumental. Anyway, I ended up just not importing the instrumental version and forced beets to import the first CD only as the single CD release: https://musicbrainz.org/release/d5d5f33b-efb1-4be9-bd68-07552f784e29 |

I've ripped the album Michael Romeo - War of the Worlds __ Pt. 2 that consist in 13 songs, then the same 13 songs in their instrumental versions. No matter what I tried, beets swaps the instrumental versions with the regular versions of the songs and vice versa.

I've tried everything, current my files are like this:
When importing, I get a a match with the musicbrainz entry from above.
Yet, whatever I do, it imports the music but swaps the instrumental versions for the regular versions and vice versa, despite the song names being correct and all. I've also tried splitting the album in two folders, even named the CDs correctly, doesn't matter.
I have no idea how to fix this. I'd love to be able to match songs file by file but I don't seem to have the choice.
Here is my config. I've also tried disabling the fromfilename extension, the musicbrainz extension and use discog instead, no luck. Thanks for the help.
